Well right before I texted my buddy he posted this message on Facebook
This morning in this era of instant news, we are affected by the 24/7 news on every electronic device. I served in many different capacities as a Special Agent with the US Secret Service. There are limits to what assets are given to former president details. Below are the thoughts of Jeff Schmitz and here are my questions. As questions are answered, more and more questions will be raised.
So many questions to be answered. Trump is a former president, so he only gets assets that former president recieves. Who did the advance? What agency are the Counter Sniper Teams from? Which buildings were considered a threat? How did this person get to that position? How long was he visible to the Counter Sniper team? Were there Counter Sniper response teams deployed? And if so, had the Counter Sniper Team been in communication with the response team? The two long range Counter Sniper Team set up on the roof had to cover 180 degrees of the area each. How long was the shooter in position before he was able to shoot? So that is just a few!! The shooter alway has the advantage. They are acting and Law Enforcement is always reacting.
In August of 1995, I was a member of the US Secret Service Counter Assault Team covering President Clinton on a golf course. US Secret Service Counter Sniper Team spotted a man with an SKS rifle with a scope pointing his rifle at President Clinton. I along with other CAT agents from our Team responded immediately. The sight Agent and I climbed up the side of this house and confronted this individual. Mike C. and I took this individual into custody and seized the rifle. The suspect was turned over to the US Secret Service Intelligence Team. The President was unharmed.
What I am trying to say there is our reaction time to the threat So for all you people out there that have NEVER BEEN IN THERE ARENA PUTTING YOURSELF IN HARMS WAY, need to wait until all the facts are in and who did what. Saying the US Secret Service failed is not accurate when those Agents jump up and cover the Former President in just seconds with their bodies. They covered Former President Trump with their bodies willing to be shot instead of the Former President. Now those Agents are heros to me.
Here is a question I asked him -
